Heat transfer between two parallel rotating porous disks with different permeability
Abstract
Heat transfer between two parallel porous disks, rotating in the same direction, in the presence of a fluid source on the axis, has been investigated. The energy equation has been simplified by expressing the temperature in powers of (Re/r-squared), where Re is the source Reynolds number and r is the radial co-ordinate. The resulting equations have been solved numerically by the Goodman-Lance shooting method. The effects of suction and injection on the temperature profiles and Nusselt number have been obtained.
